Thinking On Paper · Mining Asteroids For Platinum | Matthew Gialich, CEO Astroforge · 23 Jun 2026 podcast

I was eating dinner at a restaurant last night and you just gotta realize some of the things we do as a human species are fucking weird if you take a step back.

Like I sit in this room with a whole bunch of people and I get energy brought to me.

That's kind of a weird concept, right?

Like what are the other concepts that if we remove all social constructs from you get?

And I bet you'd be a whole bunch of funny stuff we'd never understand and they wouldn't understand us.

And that's like that'd be part of the cool thing to to experience.

Then we could go to war with them and take all their resources.

I mean, we know we o we we know we own the material coming back, right?

Like the twenty fifteen Space Act pretty clearly says that commercial companies can mine asteroids and keep it.

Do I m do I own the asteroid?

Um, yes and no.

So legally, no.

Realistically, yes, because who else is gonna go mine it?

So like there's a huge first mover advantage here, and this isn't something that's easily imitatable or copy here.

I think whenever you have companies like this,

that are developed like it's not simple to build an interplanetary spacecraft.

It may look simple.

It doesn't look simple.

It may not be complex, but like it's really difficult.

And our moat is kind of the same moat that NVIDIA has.
